I was sent to find my brother Saint, after the commotion that was caused the morning after the return to the base. I was on my own, not that i minded, I'm a big girl i can look after myself. I didn't pack too much, knowing my brother he isn't the type to stay in one for very long. It's been a few days now and so far there hasn't been a single trace of him. But i wasn't about to give up searching, after all he's my brother and if it were me out there I'm pretty he wouldn't stop looking for me. I went from town to town showing his picture asking if people had seen him.
Before i knew it a week had gone by and still nothing. I was beginning to lose hope. I stopped in medium sized town, just is started to go dark. I went to fond a place to eat. I sat down at a bar and ordered a bowl of pork ramen and a cup of tea. I broke my chop sticks apart and slowly at my ramen. Once i had finished eating my empty bowl was taken away. I stared into my tea deep in thought. Saint where are you. I sighed heavily. "Something bothering you Miss?" the chief asked while washing one of the many bowls. Sipping my tea quietly and i replied "I seem to have lost my dear brother." "What a shame. Was there an accident?" he asked interestingly. I shook my head from side to side, "No, he up and left. And i cannot seem to find him anywhere." i mumbled taking another sip of tea. "You know, we get a lot of people passing through, such as yourself. It's a possibility i may have seen him. I can't promise that though." he said turning around. I took a picture out from my bag and handed it to the chief. He looked carefully at the picture then looked at me and back at the picture. "You don't resemble each other much do you?" he said stating the truth. "No we don't. But none the less he is my brother. And means a lot to me" I said to him. "Ah i see." he answered and took another hard look at the picture. "Ah now i remember, i saw the young man earlier today. He seemed deep in thought. He sat exactly where you are sitting now" he said handing back the photo. I felt so much happier, i finally had something to go by. "How long ago?" i questioned "Oh a good few hours before you arrived to my shop." he told me tying to recall when he had seen my brother. I got up and left the stand, bowing and thanking the chief for his help.
I wondered around the town trying to think of the kinds of places where Saint would go, but nothing came to mind so i kept walking. Sometime later the people seemed to be in an uproar, curiosity got the better of me. I followed the fretting people to a large building that was ablaze. The people around looked horrified. I could tell this wasn't any ordinary fire, there was only one person i knew who could make fire quite like this. "Saint" i whispered under my breath. My instinct kicked in immediately i told the citizens to get as far away as possible. "It's too dangerous you must get away" i said shouting, walking closers to the burning building. A man grabbed my arm to pull me back. "Miss you'll kill yourself" he said as many of the other people were fleeing the scene. I got out of his grip "I have to do something important, it's ok. I'll be fine.Now go on and get away" i said trying to reassure him. He nodded and left with everyone else. "Saint what you gotten yourself into" i mumbled and ran into the fire. It was so hot even my regular was having a tough time, so i stepped it up to black ice. "SAINT! WHERE ARE YOU!?" i screamed and coughed looking in all the rooms. My body was shaking with what i could only describe as fear. I went into the last room, and there he was, just standing there with crazed look in his eyes. "Saint?" i questioned as i began to walk in front of him. He brought his head up a little and i felt as though he was looking straight through me. I was scared, right now i was scared of Saint. I to put my hand on his shoulder and he pushed me away with such a force i went through the wall. I got back up onto my feet. I didn't care that i had burned my arm in the fire "Saint, i don't want to hurt you. I really don't, you're my brother!" yelled with tears in my eyes, coughing on the smoke that was slowly engulfing the room. I could hear the debris of the building falling around us. I tackled saint and embraced him tightly. he tried to push me off but i wouldn't budge. I cried "Saint please, stop this. PLEASE YOU'RE SCARING ME" i sobbed "D...d..dee?" he questioned so quietly i couldn't hear him. The last ting i remember was him covering my head as the ceiling collapsed on us.
